Many museums and historical sites are mainly visited by tourists and not local people. Why is this case? What can be done to attract local people?

Comparing to tourists native residents are less likely to visit local museums and historical
sites
. It seems they lack interests. I would like to explore why
this
case happens and how to attract more local
people
. In my opinion, there are three reasons for
this
case. The
first
reason is few advertising or introduction in local communities.
in other words
, local
people
do not know much about museums or historical
sites
,
thus
they do not pay attention to them.
Secondly
, unlike travellers, local
people
might not search for travel information about their town. Where are many events and articles about
sites

Thirdly
, these visiting
sites
may charge for tickets. Which can prevent some local
people
to come. Because
people
are more willing to spend money when they are on vacation other than in daily life. For these reasons, there are three suggestions to solve
this
problem. One is increasing promotion in the local community,
such
as open classes about these historical
sites
in schools. As
people
are interesting they may want to go.Another one is to give residents a lower price of tickets or free entrance when it is not tourism seasons. If the price is lower enough, visiting these sight would become the daily leisure for natives. The
last
is to encourage local
people
to be volunteers of events, let they participate in. In conclusion, to solve
this
problem,

we let local
people
know,
then
we should let them an interest in and the
last
lower the barrier to visiting. I hope more and more
people
visit their historical
sites
and know their culture better.
